JAMMU: J&K BJP President and Member of Parliament (Rajya Sabha), Sat Sharma (CA), has expressed deep sorrow and heartfelt condolences over the sad demise of veteran party leader and former Praja Parishad activist, Late Adv. Thakur Ranjit Singh Ji, father of Jasrota MLA and former Cabinet Minister Rajiv Jasrotia and Rajneesh Singh (Bittu).

In his condolence message, Sat Sharma remembered Late Thakur Ranjit Singh Ji as a stalwart, nationalist, and dedicated grassroots leader whose public life spanned more than six decades. Having begun his ideological journey as a committed worker of the Praja Parishad, he played a pivotal role in strengthening the organization across the region. Over the years, he served the Bharatiya Janata Party with utmost devotion in several key organizational capacities, including Mandal President, District President, State Secretary, and State Vice President.

"Thakur Ranjit Singh Ji’s unwavering commitment to nationalism, organizational discipline, and selfless public service will forever remain a guiding light for party workers," Sat Sharma stated. "His passing is not only an irreparable loss to the bereaved family—his wife Smt. Leela Devi, sons Rajiv Jasrotia and Rajneesh Singh, and the entire Jasrotia family—but also a personal loss to the entire BJP parivar in Jammu and Kashmir."

Sat Sharma prayed to the Almighty to grant Moksha to the departed noble soul and give immense strength and fortitude to the bereaved family to bear this irreparable loss.
